Just listed my bus on vintage birds

[John]

Dan & Mike,

Pulling up to and through the Eisenhower Tunnel, may be a difficult
pull, but getting off before the tunnel at exit #205 onto US6, at
Dillon coming eastbound, or when coming westbound getting off at exit
#216 onto US6, this will take you up over the top of Loveland Pass
and it will definitely separate the men from the boys for sure. The
last time I went this way, I was escorting a 325,000 pound truck
hauling a rotor for a electrical generator in a power plant in Utah.
It seemed like it took us forever to get up and over the top, but the
big Peterbuilt with Cummins power did the job. I wouldn't even try
doing this in my 'Bird.

We had to go this way as the CDOT considered this load as hazardous
and would not allow us to go through the tunnel. On some of the
grades coming west from Denver, we were down to speeds as low as 12
mph, we had to warn the freight haulers that normally are the slowest
on these grades that we would be going slower than they were. See a
similar rear view, but lighter 250,000 pound load third row down on
right next to the yacht at;
